This could have been an exercise of reaching to see 'how far' you/they can go, and ultimately break down your reservations about sounding professional when describing any personal grievances you had with previous employers. You want to remember that every experience, good and bad, is a learning opportunity. Most everyone you have worked for/with is, in their own way, doing the best they can. All else are 'statistics'. Don't be one of those. Don't become anxious about them asking, "If they're so great, why aren't you still there?" Your are not a robot, and they are a transcendental programmer. If they, and/or you. knew that you would be a better fit elsewhere, then both parties will benefit from your exploration. Give respect, expect respect. Less
